Google DeepMind Learns to Walk and Feels the Pain
Google’s DeepMind artificial intelligence algorithms can be used to drive lots of different types of experiments, and now it’s recently been used to teach a CGI character to walk all on its own. However, this is the Internet, and that just can’t be good enough all on it’s own. We must have more.
Fortunately, we have resourceful and clever folks like Andreas Almström to tune things up a bit. He couldn’t just sit there and watch that stick figure stumble about on its quest for locomotion, no. He had to give it the soundtrack it deserves, and let us hear the pain and agony this digital creation went through as it learned to amble about.

Evolution of the Automobile
Welcome, EDIT – the world’s first modular, self-driving, electric car! The idea originated with the realization that the concept of a personal vehicle is, even if slowly, fleeting, and that with the rise of food delivery, ride and car sharing, vehicles should focus on the service brand and its needs, not the car brand.
This reverse thinking resulted in a modern EV that’s entirely modular, customizable and upgradeable according to the specifics of the brand. Say you’re a food delivery service – you can have yours equipped with a fridge or oven to ensure food freshness. Say you’re an autonomous taxi specifically for those with mobile impairments – your fleet can be adapted affordably and efficiently to accommodate special riders. Being entirely modular also extends its life, prevents absolution, and makes it future-proof.
